Until we start seeing general strikes, or other action, they will continue to ignore the people.

A week of general strikes, and the stock exchange tanking acordingly, would actually have an effect.

Basically just my steam lists.

I’m losing track of books, and started tracking them, but games tend to hang around longer, since they take me longer to get through.

That’s great!

Couldn’t work a Chrisjen/Averserala in there?

Honestly, if we had a second we were thinking Amos

Kids name is Duncan Holden Corhen

Duncan (Idaho) (James) Holden.

Nerdy names, without going the “my name is Bond Goku”

the problem is there is supposed to be 3 more seasons/books to wrap up all the hanging thread, including what happened to the gate builders and the Martian rebels.

named my kid Holden after James Holden, this is going to be a Day One buy for me… as long as the reviews arn’t absolutely horrible.

yea, there is a disclaimer at the top.

AI version of this, because I found it funny:

In Defense of Asbestos: The Mineral We Love to Hate

Look, everyone’s got their vices. Some people sip whiskey to “relax,” others puff cigars to feel “distinguished.” But heaven forbid you mention asbestos—suddenly, you’re the villain in a 1980s PSA.

But let’s be honest: asbestos walked so modern insulation could run. Before we had fancy synthetic fireproofing and high-tech soundproofing, asbestos was out here doing it all. Fire-resistant? Check. Insulating? Absolutely. Durable? Like the cockroach of minerals—won’t burn, won’t break, just vibes.

“Oh, but it causes health problems,” they say, as they light their third cigarette of the day and sip their third oat milk IPA. Everything causes health problems if you inhale it long enough. Ever tried breathing in glitter? Death trap.

And what happened to personal responsibility? You don’t see us eating asbestos sandwiches. We just want a little cozy, non-flammable nostalgia in our ceilings. It’s not like we’re snorting the stuff—though, let’s be real, if someone did that in the 70s, it was probably the same guy who invented disco.

Let’s stop pretending asbestos was some mustachio-twirling villain and start recognizing it for what it was: the gritty, misunderstood hero of 20th century construction. Sure, it had a dark side—but so did lead paint, and we don’t see that getting canceled on social media.

So here’s to asbestos: May your fibers be forever airborne in the halls of history, and your reputation just slightly less shredded than it deserves.

the painting is called “femme au narguile”, or “woman with a hookah”… so shes likely stoned out of her mind.

And it only took how many years of people saying “wow, this is a really bad idea”

I loved OW1, went and saw a couple OWL games live, put hundreds of hours in…

No interest in OW2.

Of course, a mount like this would have been part of an achievement or an in-game event. Now its just “open your wallets”

and, im guessing, dropping streaming quality again?

sounds like some needed, if minor improvements. Love the syncing of audio to speed!

How does everyone feel about the new bird songs… and lack of them after we pillage the forests?

i get that, but adding a gyro is really, really minor, just a couple modules on a PCB

whether they like it or not, it should still be included on a “premium” product, when the Wii U controllers had it!

really a cool tech, cant imagine how it would work. Could definitely make walking in VR a lot less cumbersome.

bad decisions, like making a truck that looks like… that…

oof. yea, thats not a good sign.

Yea, if they say “we didnt know what that insinuated”, and there are no other dog whistles, I’m happy that they responded so well and quickly!

I think just changing it to “Infestation 1988” would have also been enough…

Though, “infestation 88” a game about killing nazis, would also work!

Yea,

We mainly print stuff for D&D, and documents. Got a cheap laser printer. Printed thousands of sheets, on our second toaner.

When we need pictures printed, we just go to the local print shop and get them for $0.50 each.
